Understanding Dao and seeing the truth, one could be free and unfettered!
Just like how freedom was the body and freedom was the spirit, the body and spirit were free and unfettered!
Immortals … were also free and unfettered!
To Wang Baole, the past could not be changed and the future could not be grasped. Since that was the case … so what if he didn't want it?
Because he didn't want it, he could understand it better. He turned the past into the rules and the future into the rules, allowing it to exist between heaven and earth as his Dao foundation and the fate that Wang Yiyi needed to resurrect.
'Fate, I can give it to you.'
'I am willing!'
'I only want the present. From now on, the person who walks between heaven and earth does not need the past or the future. He only exists in an instant in our eyes, in the eyes of all living beings.'
Wang Baole's mind became clearer and clearer. As his long hair danced in the wind, Dao flowed around his body and spread in all directions. At that moment, due to his enlightenment, his cultivation also improved tremendously.
From mid-stage Star Sector-level, he broke through to late-stage Star Sector-level, and it was still progressing.
At his level of cultivation, the breakthrough in cultivation level was no longer determined by the accumulation of energy in his body. Instead, it was determined by his understanding of heaven and earth, the universe, the rules, and his own understanding of himself.
Comprehend the Dao, comprehend the Dao. Once you comprehend it thoroughly, you can attain the Dao!
At this moment, Wang Baole was … attaining Dao!
The past that he had lost and the future that he had given up became his Dao, illuminating his heart and allowing him to see his own path. It strengthened his resolve.
As he walked forward, the Dao on his body became thicker and thicker. As it flowed, there were signs of a qualitative change. It was as if the Dao was about to evolve into a more unique aura.
The Moonstar Sect's patriarch, who had witnessed Wang Baole's transformation with his own eyes, was shaken to the core. He had never seen an immortal before, but he had experienced it twice in his life. Once … it had come from his master, Wang Yiyi's father, who had been a demigod and a half-immortal. Half of his aura was similar to that of an immortal.
The other time … was from another person. He was walking on the path of an immortal, but he took the path of a demon.
"This … is an immortal?!" Laozu of the Moonstar Sect murmured.
"Is this an immortal?" The one who responded to him was Wang Baole, who was walking in front of him. His long hair fluttered in the wind, and his entire body was changing.
At the same time, Wang Baole stopped in his tracks. He stood there with his back facing Laozu of the Moonstar Sect. His Dao heart was clear as he pondered.
"Wood is the Innate Dao."
"Water is the Dao of Source Spring."
"Gold is the path of no retreat."
"Earth is the Dao of Suppression."
"Fire is … the Dao of Destruction."
"With the five elements as the foundation, understand the past and the future, and transform into a new Dao …"
"And all of this … is for … freedom!" As he spoke, Wang Baole smiled faintly and took a step forward. He stepped into the starry sky, and in that instant, his Dao completely transformed into … Immortal Dao!
Furthermore, as the Immortal aura spread out, it was possible to see what appeared behind Wang Baole … a black log!
The aura of the black log grew thicker and thicker. It seemed to merge with Wang Baole's Immortal Dao, and gradually, they became indistinguishable.
The moment the Immortal Dao appeared, the starry sky lost its color and the world of stone tablets shook. Everyone's mind went blank. The blood-red youth who was fighting with Luo Zhishou in the void trembled for the first time. A rare look of panic appeared in his eyes.
He was not panicking because of the Immortal Dao. Instead, behind the Immortal Dao, there was another aura that was rising rapidly, as if it was about to be completely awakened.
That aura … came from the black log!
At the same time, outside the world of stone tablets, the figure on the lone boat was also watching. Finally, a smile appeared on his face. His eyes were filled with anticipation as he muttered softly.
"Soon … Time is almost up."
Amidst the commotion, in the starry sky outside the Moonstar Sect, Wang Baole's hair was disheveled. The Immortal Dao flowed around his body, and his figure became blurry. Everywhere he went, the starry sky seemed to become unstable and showed signs of shattering under his feet. It was as if the world could no longer bear his existence and was trembling.
The last person to reach this level was Chen Qing.
"Don't be afraid," said Meng Hao softly. Wang Baole smiled and spoke softly. His words of comfort were not directed at any living being, but rather … at the world of stone tablets.
"I won't hurt you." Wang Baole's voice was filled with warmth. As he spoke, the cracks under his feet began to close up. The trembling of the world of stone tablets began to subside. However, what followed was a sense of reluctance.
It was a sense of reluctance that came from the starry sky. It was as if Wang Baole's time here … was running out.
"I'll control my aura. I won't reach a level that you can't bear.
"Wait for me. Wait for me to fuse with the Dao of Metal and the Dao of Fire … then I'll take you with me." Wang Baole's voice was gentle, and the trembling of the starry sky gradually dissipated. A sense of intimacy gathered from all directions, swirling around Wang Baole, transforming into qi flow that enveloped him.
This was the providence of the entire Stone Tablet Realm. As it spread, Wang Baole raised his head. His gaze seemed to be able to see through everything. When he saw the blood-colored youth entangled with Luo Zhi's hand at the end of the void, his gaze gradually turned cold.
"There's no rush." Wang Baole retracted the coldness in his eyes, and his expression returned to normal. Although he was confident that he could kill the blood-colored young man, Wang Baole didn't want to do that. He wanted to be absolutely sure.
Although his Dao seemed complete, it was only the outline. There were still several key points that were incomplete.
One of them was the Dao of Metal. Another was the Dao of Fire. Another was … the Dao of Immortality.
Wang Baole had mastered the Dao of the Immortal. The Immortal aura emanating from him was the result of the fusion of the Dao and the Will. It was the embodiment of great success. However, in some ways, it could not be considered complete.
"If my speculations are correct, then what Elder Brother left me … should be the other Dao of the Immortal. That is … the Dao of the Torch Flame legacy.
"That should be … Immortal Flame.
"That flame can fuse with the five elements, and can be used to carry my Dao." Wang Baole closed his eyes. When they opened, he waved his hand, causing the three pieces of silver given to him by Moonstar Laozu to appear in his hand.
Based on the current level of Wang Baole's Cultivation base, the ordinary-looking piece of silver was filled with a shocking aura. That aura contained Karma, and was apparently of the same origin as his wishing bottle.
"Karma from a single person, huh?" Murmured Wang Baole. The Immortal aura rotated, and countless magical symbols shot out from his hand. They spread out in all directions, filling the starry sky as far as the eye could see.
The runes were required for the refinement of the Dao Seed. As they spread out, Wang Baole clenched his right hand into a fist. His fist seemed to have transformed into a black hole. Instantly, the runes that spread out around him rumbled like thunder and surged towards him like an ocean.
In the blink of an eye, they converged on Wang Baole's fist, fusing into … the three pieces of silver. As they fell down, they transformed rapidly. With the addition of the qi flow in the area, combined with Wang Baole's current Cultivation base, the Metal-type Daoseed … didn't take very long. In fact, it only took half an incense stick's worth of time. When Wang Baole opened his hand again, the Metal-type Daoseed appeared!
As it appeared, the Stone Tablet Realm rumbled again. At this moment, all the planets, all the civilizations, all the living beings, everything related to the Law of Metal, whether it was minerals, Dharma artifacts, or weapons of a realm, all of them trembled!
That was because … metal of the five elements now had a source!
Wang Baole's Cultivation base exploded with power, and seemed to be on the verge of breaking through its current limits. However, in the moment that the world of the stone steles couldn't withstand it, Wang Baole suppressed the power and focused it all inside of him. At the same time, he closed his eyes.
He couldn't open them, because if he did ….
The starry sky would shatter, Heaven and Earth would collapse, and the world of the stone steles … wouldn't be able to withstand it!
"Next," murmured Meng Hao, "it's time to go to the land left behind by my Elder Brother." With his eyes closed, Wang Baole didn't need them to see anything. Murmuring to himself, he took a step forward and vanished.
